Line 46:
* [[Deus Ex Machina]]: So a bunch of rookies who could barely hold their own against the likes of William Regal are suddenly able to blow through John Morrison and go toe to toe with five star main eventers like Jericho and Edge despite showing barely any growth?
* [[Disc One Final Boss]]: Wade Barrett
* [[The Dog Bites Back]]: After Darren Young failed to win his post-Summerslam match, he was [[You Have Failed Me...|brutally exiled from Nexus]]. Two weeks later, he shows up during Wade Barrett's match with [[Randy Orton]] and distracts him enough to cost him the win.
* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Justin Gabriel is the slim, delicate and pretty [[Bishonen]] with [[Ambiguously Brown|a foreign twist]], which makes sense considering he's a former model, while Wade Barrett is a [[Tall, Dark and Snarky]], [[Magnificent Bastard]] with a [[British Accents|British Accent]].
* [[Evil Costume Switch]]: A subtle one, but it works oh-so-well - high-flying pretty boy Justin Gabriel, who'd worn white tights during his full run on ''NXT'', started wearing black trunks when he turned heel as part of the NXT Riot.
Line 130:
* [[With Us or Against Us]]: The Nexus's motto is "You're Either Nexus, Or You're Against Us."
* [[Worth It]]: On the September 20, 2010 episode of ''Raw'', John Cena agreed to any stipulation Wade Barrett wanted just to finally get his hands on him in a one-on-one match. Barrett said that he'd tried to recruit Cena to The Nexus before, but this time, he'd leave him with no choice: if Cena loses to Barrett at ''Hell in a Cell'', Cena joins Nexus. Cena fired back with a stipulation of his own - if he wins, Nexus is history - but considered the risk to his career path worth it ''just'' to finally get his hands on Barrett in a one-on-one match. This backfired painfully; Cena lost the match and was forced to join The Nexus, and per the anonymous ''Raw'' GM's orders, he had to obey Barrett's orders or he would be fired.
* [[You Have Failed Me...]]: When Darren Young was unable to win his post-''Summerslam'' match on ''Raw,'' the rest of Nexus turned on him pretty quickly.
* [[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness]]: Michael Tarver received a beatdown from John Cena after losing to him on the ''Raw'' following ''Hell in a Cell'', with no Nexus members around to help him; Barrett later told Cena he was going to kick Tarver out anyway.
** With Wade Barrett's recent humiliating defeat at ''TLC 2010'' (as well as the various injuries he suffered at ''TLC 2010''), there's no doubt he'll get excommunicated as well.
